To this film be released in 2002, probably was a big hug for so many women, a film needed to show that we can accept ourselves and body.
Because, just like the mother in the film, it's like many older women think, sadly, because of the brain washin media, male validation and root of misandry. *mostly, hispanic women
If you are a 18 mexican teenager, you probably understand and see some ways of thinking in the film, oldfashioned but realistic.*personally me, I saw it & laughed about it, this film is for a specific viewer, so If u didn't like it, it's bz is not for you
Me as a teenager, I felt her, what a lot films sometimes missed is that there are periods of life that we have,as girls or woman have a complicated relationship with our mothers.
And to see this movie, was just really nice, to see her embrace herself and never back to what she values and thinks.
